How can forecasting inform nuclear risk decision-making? Why does methodology matter and how can predictions shift outcomes in high-stakes environments?
Join us for a 60-minute webinar "Can We Predict the Next Crisis? Forecasting for Nuclear Risk Reduction", hosted by Open Nuclear Network (ONN), that brings together leading voices from the Swift Centre, Forecasting Research Institute (FRI) and Confido Institute to explore the evolving role of forecasting in nuclear policy and risk reduction. Drawing from ongoing collaborations, the session will delve into both the power and limitations of forecasting, highlighting how different methodological approaches can serve not only to anticipate potential futures, but also to actively shape them.
Following brief opening remarks from ONN, each partner will offer a short reflection on their experience with forecasting in nuclear space. A moderated discussion will follow, guided by shared questions on methodology, uncertainty, and impact, along with an audience Q&A.
Join us for a timely conversation on how forecasting can be used more effectively and collaboratively to reduce nuclear risks.
